The remarkable growth in global energy demand and greenhouse gas emissions necessitates the development of methods for efficient and reliable exploitation of sustainable and carbon-neutral energy sources. Chemical hydrogen storage is one of the efficient methods for converting renewable energy into valuable fuels for energy storage and transportation. This paper designs a novel hybrid process for simultaneous production of liquid methanol, ammonia, and heavy hydrocarbons using the combustion products of hydrocarbons emitted from industrial plants and methane. It mainly consists of several subprocesses including thermo-electrochemical cycle, CO2 capture, ammonia and liquid methanol production, and gas to liquid (GTL). CO2 is captured and utilized for the production of liquid methanol. Photovoltaic panels and parabolic trough collectors provide electrical and part of the thermal required in the process. The structure produces 17.95 kg h
